Meghalaya's UDP, which lost eight MLAs to the BJP, is set to lose three more to the NPP.

Less than a month after eight of its 12 MLAs joined the BJP, Meghalaya's regional United Democratic Party is set to lose three more. On Monday the UDP expelled MLAs Paul Lyngdoh, Renikton Lyngdoh Tongkhar and Nujorki Sungoh after they applied to Speaker Thomas A. Sangma to merge with the National People's Party.

UDP president and Power Minister Metbah Lyngdoh, who will be the party's lone MLA in a few days, said the expulsion came at an emergency meeting. The Speaker said he would seek a legal opinion and decide within a few days, and that this was the fifth merger application during his tenure. If recognised, the NPP's strength in the 60-member House will rise to 36.

Bachi hui party ka president ab apni hi party ka akela supporter hai. Ye party nahi, solo trip hai. Prachand Chutiya wo, jo ise 'Democratic' bolta hai.

Dekho babu, UDP ke 12 MLA the. 8 BJP gaye, 3 NPP ja rahe hain. Ab bacha 1. Aur us ek ko hum 'Party President' bolenge. Matlab party meeting ab sirf mirror ke saamne hogi aur quorum hamesha complete rahega: 1 out of 1.

Mazedaar baat yeh ki party ne unhe expel kar diya, jo pehle se jaa rahe the. Yaani jis train ka ticket nahi, usko platform se hata diya. Speaker saab legal opinion le rahe hain, par yeh unki paanchvi merger application hai. Paanch! Matlab unhe merger ka PhD mil chuka hoga. Sab sahi hai, bas 'Democratic' naam mein se kaun sa 'Democratic' bacha, yeh poochna padega.

FINAL VERDICTAaj ka Prachand Award: United Democratic Party ko, jiski unity 12 se 1 hone mein saabit hui. Global Prachand Chutiya Index mein ‘Lone Party’ ka naya category khula hai.
